Mine bucks but not bad like your describing mine is like driving on the highway maybe every hour one buck. But it was my wideband sending false signals saying I was running to rich so my car was cutting the fuel off temp. At least that is what my tuner said.

If I remember correctly the idle was complete junk and it couldnt be tuned out properly on the 2150's and with my setup running E85. It is what the guys at AWD Motorsports told me I needed to do to make it run right.

Anyway, I finished building my car nearly 2 years ago and already made all the necessary changes and ditched the FIC's and the car runs great so I'm not worried about it, also having the FPR under the hood is a nice piece of bling to add IMO...
I remember now that it wasnt just the FIC's and that after I swapped everything over we found out that the IAC was shot and needed to be replaced which was probably the issue but in the long run i am happy with everything.
AWD Motorsports are great guys, very reliable, and very easy to work with and for my needs in south Florida its the only place I will take my Evo
